BIO
“Are we Hypocrites? Are we Vipers? Are we all the same?”
Promising to embark listeners on a captivating journey of self-discovery and transformation, K.A.B is an alternative, progressive, heavy rock band from Coventry, UK. With a masterful blend of wailing guitars, intricate instrumentation, and melancholic hooks, their unique sound sets them apart in the realm of rock music.
Led by visionary musician Kevin Button, K.A.B has successfully crafted a sound that manifests a fusion of influences ranging from the likes of Biffy Clyro, Steven Wilson, and Metallica, creating one beautiful mess. An ever apprentice, Kevin uses his music to document his thoughts and considerations as he navigates his way through this thing we call life and does so in very aesthetically pleasing ways both on and off the stage.
Debuting with their well-received album, 'Pause/Reflect,' in 2023, K.A.B delves into the tale of a protagonist who finds themselves trapped in a desert of longing, yearning for deeper meaning. A chance encounter with a higher power ignites a transformative journey, as they strive to break free from their captive patterns, experiencing both bliss and turmoil while gazing upon the world they live in. The album serves as a poignant reminder that life extends beyond one’s self, urging listeners to challenge judgment and hypocrisy from within.
Come 2024, K.A.B successfully released a live rendition of their debut album, taken from their launch gig at the Arches Venue Coventry in December 2023 and continue to tour the local UK live circuit to great response. August 2024 marks the beginning of a new era with the release of their single ‘Wave After Wave’. Told through the sounds of alternative rock riffage, funky grooves, and catchy choruses, we find our protagonist caught in an ocean of endless struggles and addiction, clinging to fragile belief. Desperate for answers and rescue, they cry out, 'Why?' 'Why?' 'Why?' seeking response to their suffering.
What sets K.A.B apart is their ability to resonate with a diverse audience spanning multiple generations. From alternative teens to lifelong Pink Floyd enthusiasts, K.A.B's music strikes a chord with listeners of all ages. Their ability to connect with such a varied audience is a testament to the universality of their sound and the authenticity of their artistry.
“K.A.B portrays a really strong conviction and artistic persona that comes very naturally from how deeply they consider and connect to the music they write. Their established sense of artistry is a highlight and strength of their performance." - Matthew Cossey, Nexus ICA Principal and Nord Artist.
